Product Description
2-Methyl-3-methylthiofuran
2-Methyl-3-methylthiofuran is an organosulfur compound classified as a thioether (sulfide). It is known for its characteristic savory, meaty, and nutty aroma. While still potent, it is often considered a more stable contributor to background savory notes rather than an ultra-potent "impact" compound like the disulfides. It functions as a precursor or a modifier in complex flavor systems.

Applications
The primary use of 2-Methyl-3-methylthiofuran is in the flavor and fragrance industry as a building block for savory and nutty profiles.
Flavorings
- Meat Flavors: Used to build the body and depth of beef, chicken, and pork flavors. It provides a stable, savory foundation upon which the more potent "impact" compounds (like the disulfides) can sit.
- Nut Flavors: Essential for creating authentic peanut and hazelnut flavors.
- Savory Blends: Used in soups, sauces, and gravies to enhance the overall savory "umami" character.
This compound is often valued for its ability to provide a rounded, long-lasting savory note without the risk of the extreme potency and instability associated with the pure thiols.
